lyrics

All the world is a stage
And now we know
We play the roles we play
Cause we make it so
Big wigs on the heads of the little ones
We're opening our eyes and see we're playing with guns
For years we were asleep
Yeah their lies were bought
They were counting on their sheep
Who by the wolves were taught
Dressed up like the kids to carry out their plots
Off with all their clothes show 'em who's the big shot

Let's wake up
Let's shake up
Let's get up
Let's stand up

On day of emergency
Many lives were lost
Both sides of the bill
Oh yeah they paid the cost
Holes are gettin' deep
Cause all these lines were crossed
Time to push 'em in and fill it to the top
I refuse buying tickets to these staged events
Cause all the actors break their legs with all our dollars and cents
While we struggle with our parts and barely make the rent
It's time we end this scene and form one hundred percent

Let's wake up
Let's shake up
Let's get up
Let's stand up

STAND UP
